Reporter comment USDA

As filed

Compared to last week: Yearling feeders are unevenly steady throughout. New crop feeders are very strong market with this being the first new crop calf sale there was not any to compare. The cattle coming straight off the grass are still looking good in the flesh. Great showing of new crop calves today with very nice flesh. The market was very active today. Next sale is October 12th
